Please, site some sources, when was the first surviving Slovak written document issued? Where is it stored? I assume burgers were speaking German, since all Towns in Kingdom of Hungary were populated by Germans and Vallons. No Slovak is mentioned. Not even 15th century. If you think less, please, cite location and source --Vargatamas 17:48, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] What kind of history is this?!

This whole article is a joke, right? Has this article have EVER been reviewed by a reputable historian?! Like no offense, but this article totally lacks any relevant and factual information.CoolKoon (talk) 22:29, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Would you mind clarifying which statement you consider POV, factually wrong, misleading, etc.? You cannot just put six templates to an article (by the way, one of them has already been there, so your addition is redundant) without presenting your arguments here. For now, I am going to remove the tags and I expect you to list your specific objections to what the article says before you put them back. Tankred (talk) 23:52, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
Just a quick answer: personally the whole article sounds to me as if it's been taken out of a fairy-tale book. I don't have time for this right now, but I'd rewrite the whole article (which sounds more like a collection of myths than a FACTUAL article about the Slovak language). —Preceding unsigned comment added by CoolKoon (talkcontribs) 00:15, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
The entire text seems to date back to an anonymous IP in 2003. Lisa the Sociopath (talk) 23:15, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
Hmmm......The IP address' owner seems to be Nextra (GTS Nextra since a year ir two), an ISP. The specific address has been assigned to a user in Bratislava. CoolKoon (talk) 09:40, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

CoolKoon added these [1] templates between 22:24-22:42, January 17, and made a rather sentimental expression about the addong of them on the talkpage at 22:29[2]. Tankred asked for expression at the talkpage at 23:52[3], then deleted the templates from the article as "lack of any discussion" [4] at 23:53 (!!!!). CoolKoon replied at 00:15 btw[5], but Takred did not replied back, so the discussion practically ended. I did not want to label or point out this act, so I simply put them back. --Rembaoud (talk) 10:45, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Again: What are the specific pieces of information in this article that you are disputing and what are the sources that your opinion is based on? Please do not reinsert the "disputed" tag without explaining what exactly and why you are disputing. Tankred (talk) 00:41, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Disputed point from my side: there is no list of SK language documents. What we have 4-5 town laws in German from 15-16th centuries, in the Arpadian (12 volumes), Angevian (30 something volumes), and Luxemburgian Regesta (published 5-6 volumes) of Kingdom of Hungary on the territory many documents explicitly German (pressburg and towns) significant locations are referred in Hungarian even is Szepes, where I would no place any Hungarians in teh last 500 years. So the 1ST EVIDENCE listed is Bel Matyas, from 18th century and the title seems for me referring to CZECH grammar... So the "FACTS" are not supported by references, that means "fiction" on the 1st reading.

[edit] POV and factual accuracy tags

Are there any objections to POV and factual accuracy of the article based on reliable sources?--Svetovid (talk) 11:14, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
